Princess Knight

"Princess"

"Princess" started her diet in November 2005. She was 50.8kg. "Princess" had trouble walking, suffered from dry scaly skin and a bad ear infection and was always out of breath. She could only walk up and down her backyard.

We treated "Princess's" ear infection and provided pain relief for her arthritis. We also started "Princess" on a weight loss diet, Hill's Prescription r/d. Although the recommended amount was 4 cups a day for weight loss, after a few weeks she would only finish 3 cups of dry food, below the recommended amount intended for her weight loss.

By the end of May 2006, "Princess" was able to reach 29.1kg. She now has more energy and a louder bark, can walk a further distance without becoming out of breath, a lower dose of anti-inflammatories for her arthritis and her skin is not as dry. To keep her weight under control, we have put "Princess" on Hill's Science Adult Light. 

 

With careful monitoring we are sure that "Princess" will not go back to her old ways and will live a longer, happy life.
